The mail comes and you notice a letter from a law firm you do not recognize. As you open the letter you hope for
Nike Free Run 3.0 V4 gris púrpura Mujeres Ahorre 61% De Descuento y Envío Gratis the best but you are nervous in anticipation of what the letter says. You read the opening paragraph of the letter:
"We represent the ABC Company
Nike Free Run 3.0 V4 gris púrpura Mujeres Tienda Online Venta Liquidación 2014 in the protection of their intellectual property rights. It has recently come to our client"s attention that you are using the
Nike Free Run Powerlines Ii Negro Verde Hombres Ahorre Hasta Un 70% De Descuento trademark""
You continue reading your
Nike Free Run 2 grises verdes Mujeres Con Alta Calidad y Bajo Precio heart now racing. A law
2012 Nike Free Run 3.0 V2 Blanco Gris mujeres rojas Son Venta Caliente En El Mercado firm is demanding that you immediately
2014 Nike Free Run Gimnasio Negro Blanco Hombres Cómodo y Envío Appropriate.Free stop you or your company"s trademark, its brand, its very identity.
Anger, frustration, and denial set in. Everything in the letter
2014 Nike Free Run Gimnasio Negro fluoresceína Hombres Venta En Línea Con El Precio Barato is
2013 Nike Free Run Powerlines Negro Rojo Hombres llegada Liquidación Envío Rápido wrong. Your trademark is spelled differently from the other trademark. Moreover your goods or services
Nike Free Run 3.0 mujeres azules 2014 Nuevo Estilo are not identical to those provided by the law firm"s client. You quickly formulate your planned response before you even reach the end of the letter.
You decide to pick up the phone and call the lawyer who wrote the letter to explain to he or
2012 Nike Free Run 3.0 Piel de café amarillas Mujeres Venta Aquí Con Alta Calidad she
2012 Nike Free Run 3.0 V2 Gris Naranja Mujeres Ahorre Hasta Un 70% De Descuento how there
Nike Free Run OG 2014 Anti-piel azul claro Mujeres Con Alta Calidad y Bajo Precio is simply no infringement here. Better yet, you"ll
2012 Nike Free Run 2 Azul Negro Mujeres Venta Outlet Para Mujer Para Hombre 2015 put it in writing and
2013 Nike Free Run Powerlines Gris Verde Hombres Para Barato Zapatos Para Hombre begin typing a responsive yet somewhat emotion fueled email.
A trademark
Nike Free Run 2014 gris rosa claro de la Mujer 2015 Nueva Llegada Del Envío Libre includes any word, name, symbol, or device, or any combination, used, or intended to be used, in commerce to identify and distinguish the goods of one
2012 Nike Free Run 2 Rose verde Mujeres Comprar Con Seguridad manufacturer or seller from
2012 Nike Free Run 3.0 Luz Gris Verde Naranja Mujeres Disfrute El Mayor Descuento goods manufactured or sold by others, and to
2013 Nike Free Run Powerlines Negro Rojo Hombres llegada Guardar Descuento Grande indicate the source of the goods. In short, a trademark is your brand name.
Of note, federal registration is not required to establish rights in a trademark. Common law rights arise from actual use of a mark. Patent and Trademark Office has the ultimate right to use and registration. This may be the most effective defense to an allegation of infringement insofar as if you can establish that you or your company actually used your trademark before the other"s first
Nike Free Run Powerlines Ii Azul Verde Hombres Usted Puede Disfrutar Del Envío Rápido Gratuito use of their mark it is the other party that may be infringing upon your rights
2014 Nike Free Run Gimnasio Blanco Negro Hombres Venta Hogar Es Su Mejor Opción and
2012 Nike Free Run 3.0 Azul Plata Mujeres Sólo Compras En Nuestra Tienda De Ahora not the other way around.
Surprisingly law firms issuing cease and desist letters often fail to accurately establish the priority of use of their clients" trademark before sending the letter. Often this is understandable in that even with the Internet, available corporate databases, and other methods, determining when a business truly first began use
Nike Free Run Trainer 3.0 Negro Hombres Precio Más Bajo of a trademark "" especially where the business does not have a federal registration "" is often a function of the
2012 Nike Free Run 2 Negro Rojo Blanco Mujeres Con Alta Calidad y Entrega Rápida law
Nike Free Run 3.0 V5 Ext Fuego Rojo Blanco Mujeres Se Venden Con El Precio Bajo firm"s best guess as to priority of use based upon all available information it can gather.
In the alternative, the cease and desist letter you receive will, more likely than not, list the earliest date of priority of use the opposing side can claim for its trademark.
Note the legal wiggle room "since as early as" which is almost always the way dates of first use are referred to in cease and desist letters. Through experience
Nike Free Run 2014 Vino Rojo Oscuro Blanco Mujeres Para Baratos Pero Real Zapatos lawyers know to use this language so that if you respond
2012 Nike Free Run 3.0 Negro de plata de la Mujer Nueva Colección Está Disponible with an earlier priority of use
Nike Free Run 3.0 V5 Ext Lago Mujeres Azul Negro Venta Hogar Es Su Mejor Opción date they have not locked themselves into
Nike Free Run Powerlines Ii Azul Blanco Hombres Envío Gratis Para Todo El Mundo one date for
Nike Free Run Powerlines Ii Verde Negro Hombres El Precio Más Barato their client but can fall
Nike Run Balanza gratuito 2014 Negro Rosa Mujeres Con El Envío Libre back on amending that date since the original one listed in their letter was only "as early as" but the true date could be, in theory, a date they have yet to reveal.
With this in mind, you should evaluate whether you
Nike Free Run Powerlines Ii Verde Negro Hombres Con Precio Barato began use of your trademark prior to the opposing party"s first use of its mark. In other words can you beat
2012 Nike Free Run 2 Mujeres Gris Rosa Convertido En Una Parte Esencial De Moda their date of first
Nike Free Run 3.0 V4 Naranja Gris Mujeres Ahorre Hasta Un 70% De Descuento use?
Often the answer to this
Nike Free Run 4.0 Mujeres Negro Rosa Anti-pieles Envío Libre Con Entrega Rápida question is
Nike Free Run Powerlines Ii Negro Verde Hombres Ahorre Hasta Un 70% De Descuento simple. If you just opened your
Nike Free Run Powerlines arco iris púrpura Hombres Con Más Bajo Precio Auténtico business and the other party has been using
2014 Nike Free Run Gimnasio Hombres blancos Proporciona Varios 50% De Descuento its mark for 70 years they more likely than not retain priority. On the other hand, perhaps you have been using your mark in the New York tri state area for 20 years but have never registered the trademark. The other party sends you a cease
Nike Free Run Powerlines Ii Gris Hombres Usted Puede Encontrar Las Últimas Estilo and
Nike Free Run 2 2 desist letter alleging a date of first use in 2008. Who has priority? You do,
Nike Run Balanza gratuito 2014 Mujeres Verde Naranja Se Venden Con El Precio Bajo more likely than not.
But beware, the issue of priority is often a far
Nike Free Run 3 2012 Negro Rosa Mujeres Precio Más Bajo more complex question. Let"s say the other party has been using their mark for four years, has a federal registration for their trademark, and now wants you to cease using
Nike Free Run 3.0 V4 gris púrpura Mujeres Venta your mark. You are a California based business but have never taken the time to register
Nike Free Run 3.0 V7 ​​shinne azules mujeres negras Versión Adecuado Para Usted your trademark. You have also been using your trademark for four years
Nike Free Run 2014 Negro Rosa Mujeres Con Precio Más Barato y De Calidad Superior in Southern California and for almost that entire time the goods you offer have been and continue to be advertised in California, Arizona and even in Northern Mexico. In this case the
Nike Free Run 3.0 V2 Gris Negro Mujeres Venta Outlet Para Mujer Para Hombre 2015 legal definition of "use in commerce" and "use in interstate commerce" sufficient to grant federal and/or state trademark rights becomes very significant.
Nike Free Run Powerlines Ii Azul Plata Hombres Ahorre Hasta Un 70% De Descuento In this scenario
Nike Free Run Powerlines Rainbow Negro Hombres Con Alta Calidad y Entrega Rápida you may actually have
Nike Free Run 3 Gris Verde 2012 Mujeres Usted Puede Encontrar Las Últimas Estilo priority of use. You may not. More complex legal analysis would need to be performed.
As such, if there
2012 Nike Free Run 2.0 Gris Azul Blanco Mujeres Venta Hombres Running Zapatos is a clear answer to the
Nike Free Run Powerlines Ii Azul Blanco Hombres Tenemos El Precio Bajo En Línea priority of use issue and you have priority
Nike Run Balanza gratuito 2014 Plum mujeres rojas Nuestra Perfecta Calidad y Precio Razonable Haremos Satisfecho of use that will, more likely than
Nike Free Run 3.0 V5 Ext Bright Pink Mujeres Sale Barato not, be the strongest argument in defense of a cease and desist letter. If priority of use is unclear or if you do not have priority of use have heart and continue to the next step of the evaluation: whether your trademark infringes upon the other"s pre established rights.
The next
Nike Free Run 2 2 part of the analysis must focus on
2012 Nike Free Run 2 impermeable gris púrpura Mujeres Para Usted Al Mejor Precio the
2012 Nike Free Run Tr Fit Azul Hombres Amarillo Tenemos El Precio Bajo En Línea traditional elements of infringement. Circuit Courts of Appeals may differ slightly in their interpretations of the elements for infringement, universally the inquiries ask (1) whether the marks are
Nike Free Run Trainer 3.0 Negro Hombres Amarillo Envío Libre Con Entrega Rápida similar in appearance, connotation, or otherwise; (2) whether the goods
Nike Free Run Powerlines Ii Negro Hombres Luna A La Venta Con El Envío y El Descuento Más Grande and services with which the
2014 Nike Free Run Gimnasio Hombres blancos Comercio Al Por Mayor Tienda Online marks are used are identical, similar, and/or otherwise related; (3) whether the goods
2013 Nike Free Run Powerlines 2012 Gris Azul Hombres Para Usted Al Mejor Precio and services of the parties travel in similar channels of trade; (4) whether the marks are marketed in similar manners; (5) whether consumers of the respective goods and services are sophisticated; and (6) if there are any
2014 Nike Free Run Gimnasio Negro Verde Hombres Con Alta Calidad y Entrega Rápida instances of actual confusion among consumers as between the marks.
To
Nike Free Run Powerlines Ii Gris Hombres Outlet Store Clearance Sale Online 2014 determine the validity of the accuser"s allegations you must determine whether the factors support you or the other party in their allegations.
In regard to the first element, ask whether your mark is generally similar in appearance, meaning, or connotation to that of the party alleging
Nike Free Run Powerlines Ii Men Negro Verde Proporciona Varios 50% De Descuento infringement. In this regard, the less similar the marks are the less likely infringement will be found. In most instances the marks are not identical. As such, in large part there is usually a bit of subjectivity involved in
2012 Nike Free Run 3.0 Piel Gris Blanco Mujeres Usted Puede Disfrutar Del Envío Rápido Gratuito the evaluation of this element. If both marks are WIDGET
Nike Free Run 2 2 they are definitely similar, in fact they are identical. But what if your
Nike Free Run 3.0 V5 Ext Lago Mujeres Azul Negro Cada Par De Zapatos Que Compra mark is WIDGET and theirs is WIDGET MAX? Are they similar? Similar enough to create confusion? Perhaps. But
Nike Free Run 10o Aniversary azul claro púrpura Mujeres Outlet Tienda Online 2014 as stated
2012 Nike Free Run 2 Blue Orange Mujeres Outlet Store Clearance Sale Online 2014 before there is a great amount of subjectivity involved in this element as well as sub rules too numerous to mention and analyze in the context
2013 Nike Free Run Powerlines Ejército reverdecido Hombres Para Auténtico Barato of this article.
Concerning the similarity of the goods and services, if your goods
2014 Nike Free Run Gimnasio Negro Verde Hombres Con Alta Calidad y Entrega Rápida are shoes and the party alleging infringement also makes shoes that is pretty much dead on hit. But what about if you make shoes and the other party has a shoe store? Are the
Nike Free Run 2 Orange Yellow Mujeres Con Precio Más Barato y De Calidad Superior shoe store services sufficiently related to
2012 Nike Free Run 3.0 Piel café Mujeres Outlet Store Clearance Sale Online 2014 shoes
Nike Free Run 3.0 Plata Mujeres Purple Convertido En Una Parte Esencial De Moda such that confusion may arise among the relevant consumers of
2012 Nike Free Run 2 Gris Azul Rosa Mujeres Excelente Calidad your respective goods and
Nike Free Run 2 2 services? Possibly. So when analyzing this element always but yourself in the position of the average consumer
Nike Free Run 3.0 Rose Gris Mujeres 100% De Garantía De Calidad y El Envío Libre and ask: Would I be confused
2012 Nike Free Run 3 Gris Pç¹³rpura Mujeres Running Zapatos For Cheap Pero El Real between the two?
Nike Free Run 3.0 V4 Verde Gris Mujeres Adicional 50% De Descuento En Liquidación Would I think that the same people who
Nike Free Run 3 de plata Mujeres Orange Convertido En Una Parte Esencial De Moda make the
Nike Free Run 3.0 V5 Ext Lago Mujeres Azul Negro Tenemos El Precio Bajo En Línea shoes
2012 Nike Free Run 3.0 Negro de plata de la Mujer Es Una Buena Opción Para Usted run
Nike Run Balanza gratuito 2014 Mujeres Negro Rosa Es Una Buena Opción Para Usted the store that sells shoes? Again,
Nike Free Run 2 2 as above, the less similar the goods and/or services are the
2012 Nike Free Run 3.0 púrpura Blanco Mujeres Con Alta Calidad y Entrega Rápida less likely infringement
Nike Free Run 4.0 Mujeres Blue Sky 100% De Garantía De Calidad y Entrega Rápida will be found.
The next consideration is whether the goods
2014 Nike Free Run Gimnasio Negro fluoresceína Hombres Disfrute De Más Descuento and/or services of
Nike Free Run Powerlines Ii Naranja Hombres Usted Encontrará Las Últimas Estilos the parties travel in similar channels of
Nike Free Run 3.0 mujeres azules Ahorra Hasta Un 65% De Descuento y Envío Gratis trade. In other words, how do
Nike Free Run 3.0 V2 verde plata Mujeres Sólo Compras En Nuestra Tienda De Ahora the goods or services reach
Nike Free Run 2 2012 Gris Amarillo Mujeres Precio Más Bajo the end consumer. If you sell your goods exclusively through the Internet and so too does the other
Nike Free Run 3.0 V4 Azul Gris Mujeres Para Hombres Baratos party they travel
Nike Free Run 4.0 Mujeres Negro Rosa Anti-pieles Para Barato Zapatos Para Hombre in the
Nike Free Run OG 2014 Anti-piel azul claro Mujeres Con Alta Calidad y Bajo Precio same channels of trade. If
Nike Free Run 4.0 V3 anti-piel 2014 mujeres negras rojas Hasta 52% De Descuento the channels of
2012 Nike Free Run Tr Fit Azul Hombres Amarillo Ahorra Hasta Un 50% De Descuento trade are diverse, this favors you. If they overlap, this favors the
2014 Nike Free Run Gimnasio Negro Blanco Hombres Buena Calidad y El Envío Rápido accuser.
The fourth element is how the respective marks are marketed. If you both advertise exclusively through
2012 Nike Free Run 3 Pinke plata Mujeres Venta major television campaigns this factor will favor the
2012 Nike Free Run 3.0 V3 Gris Negro Mujeres Venta En Línea Con El Precio Barato opposing party"s case. In the alternative, if the opposing party uses television and major magazine advertisements to promote their goods yet yours are sold exclusively by door to
Nike Free Run Powerlines Ii Men Negro Verde Usted Encontrará Las Últimas Estilos door salespersons then the factor will favor
Nike Free Run 2014 Gris Mujeres rojas Con Precio Más Barato y De Calidad Superior you.
2014 Nike Free Run Gimnasio Blanco Negro Hombres Nueva Colección Está Disponible So if the marketing channels are similar, that favors
2012 Nike Free Run 3.0 V2 Rojo Gris Mujeres Usted Encontrará Las Últimas Estilos infringement. If they are not, that favors your position of non infringement.
Next, are the consumers for the respective goods or services sophisticated? The best way to determine this is to ask whether purchasers of the goods or services are discerning in regard to their purchasing decisions. For
2012 Nike Free Run 2 Negro Rojo Blanco Mujeres A Precio Más Bajo 55% De Descuento example, traditional "impulse" buys
2013 Nike Free Run Powerlines Gris Verde Hombres Usted Puede Ahorrar Mucho Aquí in a super market checkout line would not be considered discerning as consumers are less likely to pay significant attention to the manufacturer of goods which cost under $1.00. In
2012 Nike Free Run 2 Mujeres Gris Rosa Con El Servicio Profesional Envío Gratuito the alternative, in purchasing decisions which involve more substantial capital resources, such as the purchase of a new luxury automobile, consumers would be deemed more sophisticated insofar as it is presumed that consumers of such luxury goods are more likely to have conducted research and be educated in regard to such a purchase. In this regard, the more sophisticated the consumers are who purchase your
2013 Nike Free Run Powerlines Negro Rojo Hombres llegada Guardar Descuento Grande respective goods and services the less likely infringement will be found.
Lastly, are there any instances of actual consumer confusion between your goods and services using the disputed
Nike Free Run Powerlines Ii Naranja Hombres Proporciona Varios 50% De Descuento mark and those of the accuser? If there
Nike Free Run 4.0 2012 Rojo Plata Mujeres Ahorre 61% De Descuento y Envío Gratis are, that is strong evidence of confusion in the marketplace which would favor a finding of infringement. Actual confusion may manifest itself in emails intended for one party but submitted
Nike Free Run 4.0 Azul de cielo Mujeres Venta to another in an attempt to
Nike Free Run Powerlines Ii Azul Oscuro Hombres Buena Calidad y El Envío Rápido reach the other. It
Nike Run Balanza gratuito 2014 Negro Rosa Mujeres Envío Libre Con Entrega Rápida could also be in the form of complaints received by one party concerning the quality
2013 Nike Free Run Powerlines Gris Verde Hombres Se Openning Para Usted En Nuestra Tienda Online of products of the other.
In conclusion concerning these elements, the more that favor you the less likely that infringement will be found.
There are also other defenses
Nike Free Run Líneas del arco iris azul de los hombres Liquidación Envío Rápido to allegation of infringement which must be considered depending upon your unique circumstances. Two of these are discussed below.
First, the Doctrine of Acquiescence provides a defense when a trademark holder fails to adequately enforce its trademark in a uniform and consistent manner. For instance, while analyzing the cease and desist letter you discover that you
2012 Nike Free Run 3.0 Piel café Mujeres Con Descuento Grande y El Envío Rápido are not the only company using the mark WIDGET for shoes. If numerous other parties are
Nike Free Run Líneas del arco iris azul de los hombres Guardar Descuento Grande using
Nike Free Run Powerlines Ii Verde Blanco Hombres Con Alta Calidad y Bajo Precio the same mark and the accuser has yet to enforce its mark
Nike Free Run 4.0 V3 anti-piel 2014 mujeres negras rojas Ven y Únete a Nosotros against them the accuser may be precluded from enforcing the same against you for
Nike Free Run 3.0 mujeres azules Hasta 65% De Descuento En Las Tiendas o Tienda their failure to properly enforce their mark against all known alleged instances of infringement.
Second, the Doctrine of Laches provides that an accuser may not enforce its trademark rights against another if it
Nike Free Run 3.0 V4 Negro Azul Mujeres Convertido En Una Parte Esencial De Moda has waited an unreasonably long period of
2012 Nike Free Run 2 Negro Blanco Mujeres Outlet Store Clearance Sale Online 2014 time to do so.
If either of these two defenses is available both may strongly support a defense of any claimed infringement.
